About vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in for vSphere Client

The vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in provides integration between vRealize Orchestrator and vSphere Client (HTML5-based GUI). It provides functional parity with the legacy vRealize Orchestrator plug-in for vSphere Web Client (Flex-based GUI).

The plug-in enables users logged in to the vSphere Client to run, schedule and monitor Orchestrator workflows from within the vSphere Client. With this plug-in you can select one or more inventory objects and run or schedule an Orchestrator workflow with its input parameters being automatically pre-populated with the selected context objects.

You can define custom set of workflows which can be run on different inventory objects, depending on their type: virtual machines, clusters, datastores etc. With the plug-in you can also monitor the execution of a workflow, re-run a workflow, delete or cancel workflow executions, pause and resume scheduled workflows and answer or cancel workflows which expect user interaction.

The plug-in is supported for VMware vCenter Server Appliance, version 6.7, 6.7 U1 or 6.7 U2 and vRealize Orchestrator, version 7.6.

Comments

Hello,

I would like to update the plug-in war to add locales properties by myself (in directory assets/i18n). Is it possible, and would you like to explain how to rebuild the war so as it is accepted by the vsphere-ui ? I allready tried, but when I restart vsphere-ui, I get an error message that indicates that the plug-in data could not be retrieved.

Thanks !
